it's hard to be the youngest

The other kids started school today. Poor Sarah is board. She begins on Friday. I also bought new cell phones for Thomas and Philip. They were both so excited. They are very simple phones (no video or photo's). They do have Mp3 players and a radio. Thomas was 2 hours late today and didn't call me. I was so worried. It wasn't anything bad. He just brought the homework to a classmate. The kid missed school today. The family invited him in for a birthday party, and he forgot to call. So now he has his own phone, and he will have no excuse. Sarah was jelous, but she is a first grader. She doesn't need a cell phone.
